I already went up to the Pinetop area and hit some of the marshes the week after the opener and all the ducks had left for private ponds and lakes. I have always hunted the eastern area of the state and never up by Flag. I was wondering if Marshall lake and all the little pond/marshes up there have water in them. I wanted to head up that area Halloween weekend but was wondering if it is even worth it; does it get hunted really hard?
